Just another thing to think about, I know more than one couple that have retired early in life only to have to go back to work when investments fell through. I would be 300% sure you are all set before you step out of the workforce. Working an extra 5-10 years when your younger is a lot better than having to try to get back into the workforce when your older, and broke.

It wont be both of us retiring. The wife is in the medical field and will be working up to RN soon and she want to keep working. I will take over home duty's and play Mr.mom (which I do pretty well and like too). I also will be venturing in to starting a on a side business for a bit of hobby scratch and see where it goes.
We just had Easter out here again too. 20+ kids, 30+ adults, dogs, food and fun. Even had a herf with a half a dozen people, All happening at the same time; a herf, baseball game, kids on the trampoline, basketball, tether ball,fire pit, etc... This is something that just couldn't happen on a smaller property. Party's like that don't make the decision any easier that's for sure.
For now I think we will stay put. My A.D.D might change that notion by tomorrow though.

. Even if the wife really wants to get closer to work a trial move to a rental or even my folks vacated home in question for a year or so might be a option.
Thanks again and feel free to keep the thought coming. They do help.
